Product details
A well-crafted area rug grounds a room with color and pattern while standing up to the traffic large spaces demand. The Alon Medallion in light gray -- a traditional medallion area rug woven from 100% recycled polyester -- is available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping. Rendered in tones of gray, ivory and beige, this machine-woven piece is hand-sheared and hand-washed after production to create a soft, refined surface that rivals artisan-crafted designs while resisting the stains and fading common to natural fibers. An area rug is a textile floor covering sized to define zones within a room, anchoring furniture groupings and layering warmth underfoot, and the Alon collection exemplifies the sustainable construction and enduring pattern that make medallion designs a mainstay of LOOMLAN rugs across contemporary and transitional homes.

Why Choose a Recycled Polyester Area Rug from Sideboards and Things?
Recycled polyester fibers built from post-consumer material offer durability without the environmental cost of virgin synthetics, resisting stains and fading while simplifying everyday maintenance. The hand-sheared surface creates uniform pile height and a refined texture underfoot, while the post-production hand-washing enhances softness and removes excess fibers for a polished finish right out of the package. Position the 9' x 12' or 10' x 13' in living rooms where you want all furniture front legs on the rug and eighteen to twenty-four inches of exposed flooring around the perimeter, or anchor dining areas and bedrooms with the 5' x 7', letting the tonal medallion pattern bridge Addison rugs and modern minimalist furnishings with equal ease. Use the 2'6" x 8' runner to define hallways and galley kitchens, pairing natural wood tones and linen upholstery with the gray and ivory palette that adapts to both warm and cool color schemes across all furniture arrangements.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between a machine-woven rug and a hand-knotted rug?
- A machine-woven area rug is produced using automated looms that create consistent, durable construction at accessible price points, while hand-knotted pieces are tied knot-by-knot by artisans -- the Alon Medallion combines power-loom precision with hand-finishing techniques to deliver a look comparable to artisan-crafted work.
- What size area rug works best for a large living room?
- Select 8' x 10', 9' x 12', or 10' x 13' sizes for living room rugs where you want all furniture front legs on the rug, leaving eighteen to twenty-four inches of exposed flooring around the perimeter.
- Does the Alon Medallion rug arrive assembled?
- No assembly is required -- area rugs arrive ready to unroll and position on your floor.
